Abstract: Objective To screen the genes related with signal transducers and activators of transcription 3 (STAT3) regulating pancreatic cancer invasion and metastasis by gene chips. Methods Human pancreatic cancer cell line SW1990 stably expressing low level of Stat3 was established by lentivirus transfection,while cells transfected with mock plasmid and cells without transfection served as control groups.The differences of invasion and metastasis related genes expression among the three groups were screened by gene chips.STAT3 mRNA and protein expression was measured by real-time PCR and Western blot.Three differentially expressed genes (MMP-7,IL-1β and IgTα7) were verified.Results The expression level of STAT3 mRNA was 0.391 ± 0.037 after pancreatic cancer SW1990 cell trarsfected with STAT3 targeted lentivirus,which was significantly lower than those in mock plasmid group (1.002 ± 0.015) and nontransfected group ( 1.206 ± 0.042,P < 0.05 ) ; the expression level of STAT3 protein was 182.38 ± 65.32,which was significantly lower than those in mock plasmid group (223.40 ±58.40) and non-transfected group (212.33 ±53.69).Eight invasion and metastasis related genes of SW1990 lowly expressing Stat3 were upregulated,while 3 genes were down-regulated.By verification,the mRNA level of MMP-7 and IL-1β were lower than in control group transfected with mook plassmid(0.287 ± 0.115 vs 1.010 ± 0.124,t =19.45,P =0.000;0.490 ± 0.10 vs 1.002 ± 0.002,t =13.83,P =0.000),but the mRNA level of IgTα7 was not decreased (1.173 ±0.280 vs 0.998 ±0.003,t =4.236,P =0.094).Meanwhile,the protein level of MMP-7 was significantly down-regulated when Stat3 was knocked down.Conclusions Stat3 causes changes of expressions of many invasion and metastasis-related genes of SW1990,and MMP-7 may be the main target gene regulated by Stat3.
